Houston manager Dusty Baker said Bregman (quadriceps) could be out "for a while," Brent Zwerneman of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Baker was also quick to point out that the severity of Bregman's injury is not yet known, and the third baseman will undergo further evaluation Thursday. It sounds like there is a wide range of possible outcomes in terms of downtime for Bregman. Robel Garcia replaced him Wednesday, and he figures to be the primary fill-in while Bregman is unavailable.

Bregman went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, a pair of doubles and a walk in Wednesday's 8-3 win over Boston.
EDGE Analysis
The third baseman showed off some power with three extra-base hits Wednesday. His long ball was just his third in 33 games since the start of May. Bregman has still put together a solid stat line with seven homers, 31 RBI, 34 runs scored and a .295/.384/.464 slash line through 237 plate appearances. He's picked up six hits, including a homer and four doubles, in his last three contests, so he appears to have shaken off a recent slump.
